Iggy and the Stooges

Last in Houston: It’s possible I’ve missed a show, but the last date my search pulled up was a Number’s performance in 1994 with Chainsaw Kittens. A 1997 appearance on the R.O.A.R. festival tour was nixed when Ig injured his shoulder stage diving and pulled out of the tour.
Since then: Quite a bit has happened. Iggy reunited the Stooges, with Minutemen bassist Mike Watt sitting in for the late Dave Alexander. They made an album and a half before guitarist Ron Asheton died in 2009. He was replaced by “Raw Power”-era guitarist James Williamson, who plays on the new “Ready to Die.”
